Sustainable Development

How can Celite Cynergy Aid Sustainability Initiatives?

Reduction in beer extract losses as fewer filter start ups and shut downs means less beer and water interfaces going to drain

Water Usage and Effluent Disposal

Longer filtration runs between cleaning saves time and materials, with a positive effect on water consumption and process efficiency

Reduced waste cake as a result of longer filtration cycles, which means a reduction in effluent disposal costs

Fewer filter wash offs mean a reduction in detergents and cleaning chemicals being used and going to drain

Carbon Footprint Reduction

Reduction of filter cake volume leading to longer filter runs between filter cleans

Reduction in hot water and electricity usage as a result of longer filter runs and therefore fewer filter cleans and sterilizations

Improvement and simplification of brewing process by combining filtering and stabilization processes and removing the need for silica gel during beer clarification

Food Safety

Use of Food Chemical Codex and Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approved materials – engineering from materials that already have Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status and approval from the FDA for use in beer production
